The places of history

by Fabio Toncelli 30’

In the first TV series, prime time on Rai3 for La Grande Storia, Fabio Toncelli – during the 70th anniversary of the institutional referendum for monarchy or republic – shows us some important places that are symbol of this great historical event: the king’s secret bunker, Villa Ada after its restoration, the magnificent Villa Rosebery on Naples gulf, the Camera historical archive, the big stage at La Scala. Toncelli shows us a woman’s face on the first page of the Corriere della Sera that announced to Italians the Republican victory. This was the “Republican woman”, an historical face whose name has been known only today.
